[img_assist|nid=42209|title=|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=291|height=412]INTRODUCTION
Water is life. To combat stress, weariness and the passage of time. For health, energy and regeneration. Water is the source of our wellbeing, health and beauty.And so it is quite natural that increasing numbers of people are choosing to take a break at a centre that offers a water-based fitness programme.
Thalassotherapy centres, beside the sea, each one in an exceptional location, combine the use of the sea’s many resources (water, seaweed and even beach sand) with the benefits of the seaside climate, invigorating and stimulating on the Channel and Atlantic coast, gentle and restful on the Mediterranean.
Up in the mountains or in the heart of rural France, spa resorts have developed fitness centres in a spa environment. Modern and luxurious, but retaining, in some cases, their Belle Epoque charm, they dispense spa water treatments for the most soothing of holidays.
French-style aquatherapy is establishing itself as a worthy heir to the two sectors mentioned above. It combines water fitness treatments with other fashionable therapies. Located either in town centres or close by, these establishments use spring water and provide a city break combined with complete relaxation. Each fitness centre has its own character, but they all vie with one another in terms of comfort to offer a cocoon of wellbeing, serenity and rejuvenation. They are all real living spaces and include, in addition to the treatment rooms, swimming pools, gyms, Turkish baths and Jacuzzis. The hotel is often located right next to the fitness centre: the architecture is designed so that you can make yourself at home and lounge around in your bathrobe.
DESCRIPTION : THE SITE

Here the sea air is all around, allowing visitors to benefit from its bracing effects every second of their stay. The long beach of fine sand stretches as far as the eye can see.
